From the spec:
SOZip writer MUST issue a call to deflate() ZLib method with the Z_SYNC_FLUSH mode, followed by a call with the Z_FULL_FLUSH flag, at a fixed interval (called chunk size) of the data read from the input uncompressed stream.
Such a reference should not be part of the spec: this reference to ZLib is an implementation detail that could be mentioned in an annex for implementers.
Instead, the spec should have no mention of ZLib in its body to allow it to be implemented using other deflate implementations than Zlib.
